Electric cars require more frequent visits to the workshop due to technical problems or recalls. Skoda, Audi, and Opel electric cars most often had to go to a workshop.
The most reliable electric cars, however, come from Mercedes, BMW, and Nissan. 19 percent of those surveyed said they had to wait significantly longer than expected for their car, compared to just six percent for gasoline and diesel cars. The carbon footprint of electric cars is influenced by various criteria. According to an article by NDR, it depends on how big a vehicle is. The study was carried out by UScale, a market monitoring company based in Munich, Germany. It compared 2,100 drivers of electric and combustion cars and around 400 drivers of combustion cars in the roof region to see how reliable the operating modes compare. The results were published in the trade magazine UScale’s new EV after-sales study to examine how reliably the operating modes compare.
